Page 12 of 20: 200 matching reviews (489 reviews in total) Funny movie, worth seeing Author: techdock 8 December 2000 OK, so maybe I'm easily amused, but I enjoyed this treatment of a holiday classic. I liked the balance of the dark atmosphere against the holiday season, and the satire on the overcommercialization of Xmas is excellent, although it loses steam later on. Jim Carrie comes through about as expected, although I did find one scene tasteless and gratuitous. I wouldn't recommend this movie for extremely young viewers, however. In many ways, this movie is more the way I would expect Tim Burton to handle it, rather than Ron Howard. Still a movie well worth seeing. 8/10 Was the above review useful to you? the story was changed too much from Tulsa, Oklahoma 4 December 2000 i didn't like the movie very much. the only thing it had in common with the original story was the makeup.

the makeup artist did a very good job. the story was changed completely. i was very disappointed with the movie Was the above review useful to you? Jim Carrey Carries This Film! from USA 23 November 2000 If you like Jim Carrey, you will love How The Grinch Stole Christmas. He is simply great with the rest of the cast simply along for the ride. The script offers so many little asides that probably Carrey contributed much of it. It is a film for age 10 and above. Small children might be frightened by some of the scary moments. You will get more than a few laughs and you will smile throughout the whole film. Well worth the $5.50 I paid. Each your heart out. I'm a senior! Was the above review useful to you? Not EXACTLY How I Remember It... from Sunland, CA 21 November 2000 Yes, they added some things; this is, after all, Hollywood, and I suppose it'd have be a lot shorter film if he just stole Christmas. While sets of the Grinch's lair were stunning, much of the added plot doesn't work well.

Any filler-plot and average jokes were more than made up for with good acting and the impressive sets/visual effects (the scenes with The Grinch actually stealing Christmas are, for lack of better word, cute). Simply put, Jim Carrey IS The Grinch. Though at times almost unrecognizable under the makeup and potbelly, Carrey adds his own spirit to make such an unlovable character quite lovable, even when his heart was a few sizes too small. While other actors did good jobs, this was Carrey's movie; he couldn't be touched, and rightfully so. In the end, its a great holiday movie, with a timeless theme, and may be a "fun for the whole family" movie that for once actually lives up to that description, but the animated version is still better. Was the above review useful to you? It's a Family Affair from Dallas, Texas 20 November 2000 Greetings again from the darkness. Check out the number of "Howard" surnames listed in the credits. I counted four, but may have missed some. Dedicating the film to his recently deceased mother, Ron Howard was the perfect choice for directing this Dr. Seuss adaptation. Mr.

Howard has a real feel for family relationships and that plays a key part in the theme of the Grinch vs. Who-ville. Howard, as usual, cast numerous members of his own family in the film. This includes, the always good for a laugh, brother Clint. Jim Carrey again proves that he is a tremendous acting talent. "The Truman Show" followed by "Man on the Moon" and now this! We are are blessed to watch such a uniquely talented performer perfect his craft. If you say the Grinch role required little acting, you are wrong. Carrey captures the true spirit of the role, and a wide range of emotions, while toting make-up that makes it impossible to recognize him. My one complaint with the film is the extremely weak version of the Grinch theme song. Done wonderfully creepy in the original TV special, the song is so light-hearted in the film that it loses the punch it is supposed to pack. My tidbit on this one is to be sure and catch the Ron Howard parody performed by Jim Carrey as he doffs a ball cap and begins mimmicing the director. This was most assuredly a Carrey ad lib that made the final cut.

My request of Jim Carrey is: PLEASE get over the butt fetish! Was the above review useful to you? A fun family film! from Waterloo, Ontario 20 November 2000 I really enjoyed this film. Jim Carrey is the hardest working man in Hollywood, and here he gives it everything he's got. His performance as The Grinch makes the film. Ron Howard wants to be a friendlier version of Tim Burton in this film, which is not a bad thing. He gives the film a washed out looked, full of drab reds to show the Grinch's distain for the whole holiday. The screening I was at was full of children, all of whom seemed to be enjoying themselves. This was a near-perfect adaptation of the cartoon to the big screen. Was the above review useful to you? A Funny Movie from Texas 18 November 2000 This was a very funny movie. Despite what the critics say about what is wrong about this film, i think it accomplished what it set out to do...make the whole family laugh. Jim Carrey had one of the best roles of his career.

Even though you can't "see him" through all of the great makeup, you can hear his clever acting and it will have you laughing in every scene. Of course, there are some slow parts of the show. It was to be expected when you are trying to make a respectably long feature length film out of a 30 minute cartoon. Even though the supporting cast plays almost no part in the main part of the movie, Carrey picks this movie up on his shoulders and makes it one of the most hilarious laughs of the year. Was the above review useful to you? 1 out of 2 people found the following review useful: Masks from Denmark 20 May 2006 A fantastic movie. The mask's are incredible, and the stage-set wonderful. A film that makes you use your imagination. Jim is great. Lots of work have been poured over this film, and you feel that every little detail have been under the looking glass. The plot is and old-timer, but never the less, it is secondary. Just enjoy the figures and the tone, and let your self be driven in to a fantastic fantasy world.

Ron has made a brilliant experience, in how to create a world of its own.Jim is playing strong, knowing that the figure character has a life of its own, which recommends a bad character. See the movie, and allow yourself into a magnificent world. Was the above review useful to you? 1 out of 2 people found the following review useful: A Fun Holiday Movie For 2000. 23 November 2000 *** This review may contain spoilers *** I've been reading the comments on "The Grinch", and I have to say that they seem a little harsh. In fact, I even think I saw a review saying this was comparable to "Batman & Robin". No, no, no. Nothing could ever compare to that mockery of a movie (but several have tried), and while "Grinch" has a few little nitpicks, it's certainly not a bad movie. The story itself is all too familiar, but now it has a lot of backstory and exposition and everything else. Initially, it sags a little at times, but immediately picks right back up before ever really dropping the ball, and as it gets closer to the Grinch's stealing of Christmas, it really picks up and doesn't stop from there.

But you have to look at this objectively: It's a children's story with whimsical characters, so it gets silly at times, and overall, that's fine. What I didn't like were the camera speed up/slow down effects. *MINOR spoiler* There's a scene where the Grinch is driving a miniature car, and after he wrecks it, has to escape before it explodes. This escape is done in slow motion, and this totally just seemed to say "Hey! This is a big budget Hollywood film! Explosions are practically mandatory!" But then again, this isn't exactly "Die Hard" either. It does the same effect later for another scene, and it still bugged me. *End minor spoiler* I think the film could also have gone without the references to current trends, jokes and happenings. I think it would have kept more of a timeless quality that way. But it was still a fun ride. The sets were great. During a visit to Universal, I had a chance to see these sets up close, and they looked the way they should, and translated even better to film. While Tim Burton would probably have done a fantastic job with this, the sets were appropriately Seuss regardless.

Colorful, weird, and imaginative all the way. I've noticed some people saying that Jim Carrey was wrong for the Grinch. As his third green cartoon character (Mask and The Riddler being the other two), he was back to the Jim Carrey of 5 years ago: Totally offbeat and just nuts. And it was nice to see him briefly return to that again, and it shows that he's pretty comfortable with both his comedy and drama roles. But something happens to Carrey as he begins to steal Christmas: He completely transforms into the Grinch, right down to the posturing, facial expressions and dialogue from the cartoon. The gradual change was a complete shock to me, and it left no doubt in my mind that he was more than perfect for the role. The costume looked great and it turned out to be more effective than I thought. The little girl who played Cindy Lou was pleasant for the role (proving that not all child actors are annoying), and her interaction with the Grinch was fun. Anthony Hopkins was fine as the Narrator, and while Boris Karloff made a great Grinch/ Narrator in the original cartoon, the man passed away over 30 years ago.

There's really not much that can be done about that. Even the dog was entertaining. The music? I always like a good James Horner score (barring the over-played "Titanic" theme, and they even fit the songs in from the cartoon, so there's no disappointment there. So "The Grinch" got a little too silly for itself at times, but The Grinch himself was good, the sets were amazing, the adapted parts from the book and cartoon were surreally accurate, it had a decent message, and the narration even had Seuss-style rhyme. It's a film that you can take the kids to, or just sit back and enjoy all the eye-candy. You might even find some nostalgia in there as well. If you look at it that way, then there's really nothing to complain about. Was the above review useful to you? 2 out of 4 people found the following review useful: 5.6??? Sorry but I thought the film was surprisingly good! from United Kingdom 9 September 2009 Of course it isn't as good as the animated classic, an immensely charming, beautifully animated gem, that is a family Christmas favourite.

I will admit I was a bit sceptical of the remake, but other than some slow scenes in the middle half and a patchy script, this film is surprisingly good. Honestly if you thought this is terrible, and I completely respect anyone who thinks that, I warn you Cat in the Hat was much worse, and gets my vote as the worst Dr Seuss adaptation ever. How The Grinch stole Christmas is very colourful, with great set design, and an unrecognisable Jim Carrey was terrific as the Grinch, he was actually really funny, not like Mike Myers who was miscast as the cat in Cat in The Hat. Everyone else was fine too, particularly the girl, and while he is no Boris Karloff Antony Hopkins does a good job as the narrator. The script is patchy in places, but there are a number of very funny bits, and it was nice having some character context about the Grinch. All in all, a colourful, well performed film, not as good as the 1966 animated classic,and flawed it is, but actually one of the better Dr Seuss adaptations. 8/10 Bethany Cox Was the above review useful to you?
